  "account": "Iran postponed a meeting with Gulf nations in Oman following its cancellation on Monday, according to Iranian state media. The decision was reportedly made at the request of certain regional countries, as confirmed by a foreign ministry official cited by Fars news agency. The Omani Foreign Minister, Badr Albusaidi, disclosed the postponement on X, stating the meeting's rescheduling stemmed from a consensus. The meeting, originally planned in Salalah, was intended to discuss various issues, including maritime navigation regulations through the Strait of Hormuz and bilateral negotiations on vessel transit protocols. Oman, which borders the Strait, had previously assured Gulf Arab monarchies of its support for the dialogues. The postponement came amid ongoing tensions, including a US-Israel military offensive against Iran on February 28, which halted approximately 20% of global oil shipments and led to a naval blockade by Iran.",
  "summary": "A scheduled meeting between Iran and Gulf states in Oman was postponed following a joint decision by Tehran and Muscat. Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi noted the delay aims to build regional consensus, while talks were expected to focus on Strait of Hormuz shipping agreements.",
